[FIELDSET="QUOTES TO NOTE"]
We saw Fleury wasn’t there during warm-up and that’s when we knew Zatkoff would play.
We wanted to get as many shots on him as possible, but anyone who’s in this league is good enough to play.
He was their backup goalie all year. It’s not like it was some guy up from the minors who never played before.
We had respect for him, and I thought we did some good things, but we made too many mistakes.
- Derick Brassard
Regardless of their goaltender, what stings is that we talked about doing the job against their top line and we didn’t get it done.
You can’t allow five goals and expect to win a playoff game.
- Derek Stepan
That shorthanded goal against was definitely a turning point in the game. Made the comeback even harder.
I do know we have quite a few guys that have to play better than they did. It’s obvious we’re going to need to play better as a team.
- Alain Vigneault
